Street Fighter V rankings show Mxolisi Lukhele to be dominant.

Mxolisi Lukhele (Amplified Rebellion) has made himself the man to beat.

Mind Sports South Africa's annual South African National Championships held on 1 December 2018 saw a substantial shake-up in the Street Fighter V esports period.Leonard Loftus (Masters of Mind Sports) had worked hard to take the lead in the official rankings. Having won the North West, Mpumalanga, and Free State Championships, Leonard seemed destined to claim dominance over the period.

However, the 2017 National Champion, Mxolisi Lukhele (Amplified Rebellion) made his appearance at MSSA's 2018 South African National Championships, and stamped his presence on the period by defeating each and every opponent who came up against him.

His results have thus placed Mxolisi at the top of the rankings, and have painted a mark on him as the man to beat.

However, it is extremely exciting that there are now two females ranked in the top ten, being, Leone Loftus, and Cindy-Lee Strydom.
